「曠野の決闘」 (Kouya no Kettou)
“Duel In The Wastelands”
I’ll be honest, until the end of this week’s episode I just wasn’t feeling the SAO-vibe I was looking for from the first season. Luckily, a weird combination of things came together and reignited my passion for the show. Yes, I kind of understand why everyone loves Sinon so much now.

「驟雨」 (Shuu)
“Cloudburst”
Whatever else one might say about Tokyo Ghoul, you can’t argue that it doesn’t keep itself busy.

「走れ、ジェイミー!」 (Hashire, Jeimii!)
“Run, Jamie!”
While Argevollen still fails to depict the gravity of war–largely because Samonji manages to keep all his subordinates alive somehow–it did make some positive strides this episode. Surprisingly, the most notable stride was the jump in animation quality.
